The Naked Leader

Fasten your seat belt, it's all you need to wear.

There is a new wave of thinking and action that puts people before
process, choice before change, and meaning before money. We are now
entering a new business, leadership and global age, with a vision,
agenda and spirit born out of the realisation that there has to be
a different way of success, business and leadership. One that sets
us free from traditional business thinking, and takes you, your
business and your life to new levels of awareness, success and
achievement.

This next business age is in your hands. The Naked Leader is the
antithesis to the process driven mentality that has wasted so many
millions, destroyed the trust between company and employee, and
enabled so many companies to at best stand completely still.

The Naked Leader is a distillation of David Taylor's ideas and
inspiration - ideas which have made him Europe's most sought-after
speaker on leadership and personal growth. David is known as the
"Naked Leader" because of his extraordinary ability to strip away
uncertainty and doubt, and conclusively show that everything we
need to be successful, we already have.

The Naked Leader shares hundreds of life-changing actions,
including:

• The fastest way to make any change in your life

• How to build deep and lasting rapport with anyone

• The 7 most powerful questions on earth

• How to change how you feel, in a single heartbeat

• The structure of guaranteed success

• How to be an awesome presenter

• Discovering who you really are, and why you are here

The Naked Leader strips away the mystery, hype and jargon, to
reveal the single formula for assured success that is available to
everyone. The book is a journey which can be taken from beginning
to end, or joined at any stage - taking you to wherever you want to
be, drawing on the very best leadership thinking around the world,
finally revealing the answer to the ultimate question, "who are you
and why are you here?"

Taylor reveals the exact, specific actions to take to predict the
future, and then shape it. As a practitioner, not a theorist,
Taylor knows what works, and what does not. He shows us what to do,
and exactly when to do it.

No matter what your vision, challenge or present position, The
Naked Leader ensures that you succeed, making your future no longer
a matter of chance, but rather a matter of choice.

It is powerful, and the results are amazing.
